• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp chopped fresh oregano
• 1/4 tsp salt

Preparation

Step 1

1.) Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over med-high heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, cumin, oregano, and salt. Stir to mix. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes or until the vegetables have softened.

2.) Add the flour and black pepper. Stir so the flour thoroughly coats the vegetables. Add the broth and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add the chicken. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Add the pumpkin seeds and stir into the sauce.
